Bassani O/R X pipe

[Bill9000]

What you need is a breaker bar (or a cheater pipe to put over the end of your ratchet) to get leverage. Remember, leverage is your friend. Next, you need a 6 or 9 inch extension. Try to use 3/8ths drive because 1/2 is harder to get into the passenger side. I don't know exactly how a 97's exhaust is setup compared to 99+, but all I needed other than those tools was a swivel. Our nuts on the midpipe are 15mm so maybe yours are too. Just get a good angle on the nuts before you try to loosen them and use a little WD-40 if they won't break loose.

What he said.
But also, save yourself a LOT of grief and get a swivel socket for getting the midpipe out... I "misplaced" some of my tools in a move, and didnt have the swivel head, and it was horrible, would have been easy with the socket!

Okay here's a question, I really like the Bassani X pipe mixed with the Borla cat back, but I have a 98 GT 5-speed and I can't find a listing for the borla for a 98 anywhere, can you guys help point me in the right direction?

i have borlas with my bassani midpipe, but im almost 100% sure they dont make the stinger cat back for our years... or atleast i havent found it, i tried looking for it also, but nothing,.... im running the borla pro xs mufflers... sounds good to me...

Wow, that sucks. There's nothing good about the 98 GT.

So did you weld the mufflers into your existing stock system?
